❤️ Happy Valentine’s Day ❤️

Today is about more than cards and chocolates—it’s about connection, care, and love in all its forms. Whether you’re celebrating with a partner, friends, family, or taking time for yourself, every kind of love matters.

Valentine’s Day is also a gentle reminder to:
💗 Speak kindly to yourself
💗 Set healthy boundaries
💗 Appreciate the people who support you
💗 Nurture relationships that feel safe and meaningful

If this day brings up loneliness, grief, or complicated emotions, you’re not alone. Our therapists are here to support you in building healthy relationships—with others and with yourself.

Wishing you a day filled with warmth, compassion, and moments that make you feel valued. ❤️

🌐 Safer Internet Day | February 11, 2026 🌐

The internet can be a powerful place for learning, connection, and creativity—but it also comes with risks, especially for children and teens. Today is a reminder to pause and talk about online safety, digital boundaries, and respectful behavior in virtual spaces.

Safer Internet Day encourages us to:
🔒 Protect personal information
💬 Practice respectful communication
🚩 Recognize unsafe or inappropriate content
🤝 Know when and how to ask for help

Open, judgment-free conversations between parents and kids make a huge difference. Ask what apps they’re using, who they’re talking to, and how they feel about their online experiences.

If online stress, cyberbullying, or exposure to harmful content is impacting your child’s mental health, support is available. Our therapists work with children, teens, and families to build coping skills, confidence, and healthy digital habits.

📞 Call 717-775-3380 to learn more about counseling and resources.

Together, we can help young people stay safe, supported, and empowered—both online and off. 💙

💚 Children’s Mental Health Week | February 2026 💚

Children experience big emotions, stress, fears, and changes just like adults—but they don’t always have the words to express them. This week is a reminder that mental health is just as important as physical health, especially for our kids.

When we support children’s emotional well-being, we help them:
✨ Build confidence
✨ Strengthen relationships
✨ Learn healthy coping skills
✨ Feel safe, heard, and understood

Whether it’s talking about feelings, setting routines, limiting screen time, or reaching out for extra support, small steps make a big difference.

If your child is struggling with anxiety, behavior changes, school stress, grief, or big life transitions, you don’t have to navigate it alone. Our team is here to support children, teens, and families every step of the way.

📞 Call us at 717-775-3380 to learn more about counseling and support options.

Let’s keep creating spaces where kids feel safe to share, grow, and thrive. 💚

Due to the snow today, our office will be closed tomorrow Monday, January 26th. If you have an appointment tomorrow, your therapist will reach out to you to confirm your virtual appointment.

Stay safe, take it slow out there, and let the snow be your reminder to breathe.

January is Mental Wellness Month, and we’re honoring it by celebrating the small, steady ways people care for their minds every day. Mental wellness isn’t a finish line—it’s a practice, a rhythm, a series of tiny check-ins that strengthen us over time.

This month, we invite you to pause when you can. Notice what your body whispers. Set boundaries that protect your energy. Reach out when things feel heavy. Seek joy in moments that feel light enough to hold it.

Your mental wellness matters—deeply, daily, and in every season of your life. 🌱💛

Here’s to nurturing it with patience and compassion this month and beyond.
